Autonomous vessels in short sea shipping and inland waterways

Expected Outcome: Project outputs and results are expected to contribute to all the following expected outcomes: Demonstration of remote-control operation of vessels without crew, controlled remotely (degree three[1]). Development of concepts for fully autonomous ship where the operating system on the vessel is able to make decisions and determine actions by itself (degree four[2]). Strengthen market confidence in the integration of remote and automated navigation in ship types and services that may see a shortage of workforce in the next decade. Contribute to the EU Port Strategy and the EU Industrial Waterborne Strategy, as well as the EU AI Continent Action Plan[3] and the upcoming EU Apply AI Strategy. Scope: Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) have been the focus for several projects both with EU-funding and individual countries but a major breakthrough leading to extensive deployment and widespread commercial maturity are still not achieved. Autonomous vessels can offer safer and more efficient operations and cost savings. New skills and training needed for MASS is a critical issue to ensure safe operations. Projects are expected to address all the following aspects: Demonstration of two different remotely controlled vessels without seafarers on board, considering the most promising areas of operation and types of ships towards market adoption. The demonstration should be performed in at least one short-sea shipping vessel. Demonstration of two different fully auto…bron

• Demonstration of two different remotely controlled vessels without seafarers on board, with at least one short-sea shipping vessel
• Demonstration of two different fully autonomous operations in at least one inland waterway vessel
• Demonstrations must address whole navigation voyage including port calling, mooring, berthing, and passing through locks in all weather conditions
• Include aspects for predictive maintenance and self-diagnostic systems
• Identify and address implementation bottlenecks for relevant ship types
• Ensure sufficient cyber risk management of systems and infrastructure
• Address standardization needs and safeguards for data-integrity and cyber security
• Integrate ongoing legal processes at EU level and IMO related to automated vessels
